Rebirth of the Viking King

"Merciful Holy Lord, please forgive my sins and point out the way forward for confused believers."

In the empty church, Jerome and the six monks behind him were kneeling in front of a rough cross and praying devoutly.

The cross inside the church was just two hard tree trunks tied together with ropes. It was far from the high-end products he had seen in the wealthy churches in the English Islands.

But this does not affect the status of this simple church in the hearts of several monks.

"Lord, what should I do?"

This is the biggest doubt in Jerome's mind.

The construction of a Holy Lord's Church in Scandinavia, which was ruled by the Vikings, was a remarkable achievement for the "Holy Lord Christ", a new god who was born only a few hundred years ago.

For completing this feat, all seven monks received rewards. When the church was built, the six ordinary teachers of the Holy Bishop immediately bathed in the Holy Light and were promoted to the Chosen of the Holy Bishop.

One "War" pather, two "Holy Light" pathers, two "Law" pathers, and one "Faith" pather.

Jerome's path of justice has also been upgraded from Sequence 5 "Knight of Holy Light" to Sequence 4 "Light Overseer"

Jerome has lived for thirty years, and he has never seen such a dense concentration of chosen ones breaking through! "Preaching" is the only upgrade path announced by the church to the outside world. There is no doubt that proselytizing the Vikings was the main reason for their reward.

But if they want to keep the church in the follow-up work, they must violate what the Holy Bishop expressly prohibits: killing.

The Holy Lord monks are not saints who do not kill. All of the "Heresy Tribunals" under the rule of the Pope are the chosen ones under the "Path of Justice". Their daily job was to purify pagans with sacred fire.

But the infidels continued to kill them.

The Arab Empire on the East-West Continental Bridge believed in the "Vulcan Cult", and the "Principality of Ramses" that once stood on the African continent believed in the "Temple of Anubis" and the "Temple of the Sphinx"; the more distant continent " The "Aztec Empire" in the New World believed in the "Stairway to the Sun" and the "Feathered Serpent".

All these "new gods" that have been born for less than a thousand years have been defined by the Pope as "heresies" that need to be judged. Even his teacher "Saint" Euseubi once vaguely mentioned that the number of dead souls who died under the hammer of the "Holy Holy Army" was even more than the total number of killings caused by any one country.

But has any of these people been exploited for their divine power?

No!

Their divine power only grew stronger with the killing.

However, for ordinary monks like Jerome, "hearing" that someone else killed someone is completely different from picking up a weapon and fighting the opponent with a real sword and a real gun.

In this dark Middle Ages where there was no TV, no games, or even radios, the ordinary people who had never had their hands stained with blood really had never eaten pork or seen pigs running away when it came to "taking up weapons to kill people"!

Once on the battlefield, Jerome ran away after 10 minutes of OB. On the one hand, Jerome lamented that he was really lucky, but on the other hand, he never woke up from the brutal killing in the dark night.

As long as he closed his eyes, he seemed to be able to taste the choking cold wind and the roaring axe of that night again.

And now, a more brutal war is about to happen before their eyes.

"Holy Father, Holy Mother, Holy Spirit, Omniscient and Almighty Lord, we have just built this church, and everyone has witnessed the apparition of our Lord! All members of a church are the 'Chosen Ones'! There is no doubt that we are leaving On the path desired by the gods!"

"But after 7 days, why didn't any Holy Spirit respond to me again?"

Jerome's confusion stemmed from the surprise attack outside the Snow Grave Valley. After reciting the prayer, there was no response from the weapon in his hand. Jerome, who suddenly lost his divine power, ran back to the village in a daze. Even now, he still doesn't know what happened to him.

But he knew that he had to come up with a solution as soon as possible because the enemy was right outside the door.

"To protect this new church, we all need to take up arms, cut off the heads of strangers, and bathe in the blood of strangers. Holy Father, you are depriving me of my divine power at this difficult time. What do you want me to do? What?"

Loki, who was standing at the door of the church, saw Jerome inside the door kneeling in front of two logs and mumbling. He sighed helplessly and walked in.

"Path of Justice" Sequence 4, Light Supervisor

No matter how much he wants to deny it, this confused "archbishop" is the number one fighting force in Hanshui Village. It was useless for Loki to rely on illusory gods when it came to matters of life and death.

He grabbed Jerome from his kneeling position and dragged him to the bench next to him.

"From now on, we must set a rule: as the bishop of our Hanshui Village Cathedral, only others will kneel to you, but not others to kneel to you, do you understand!"

"Even those two damn pieces of wood!"

"That's the Holy Cross, it's holy."

"No! Keep your eyes wide open and let me take a good look! Those toys are just two pieces of wood picked up from outside the village, with a ball of hemp rope tied in the middle!"

Loki put the blood ax aside and landed next to Jerome.

"Ninety percent of the villagers will die tonight! But it's actually not terrible. Being decapitated with a heavy ax is the ending that each of us deserves."

"Because everyone here is a heinous villain!"

"For example, I lived twenty years and killed no less than 100 people!"

"This is not a simple set of numbers, but a living human life! They are all someone's husband, someone's wife and children, but I picked up the ax and smashed their heads without hesitation. , without any mercy.”

"And him, did you see the kid who just walked through the door? He is only 15 years old, but the last time I went to sea to rob, he personally killed no less than 10 Slavic warriors! Most of them were not yet A half-grown child.”

"Including the beautiful woman who rode alongside you yesterday! She is married, but she still changes bed partners according to her own preferences! Just bring whoever you like into the room for an in-depth exchange!"

"What is this called in your Holy Lord's teachings? Tongjian? Qiangjian?!"

"I can tell you very responsibly that this is called daily life in our land!"

Speaking of which, Loki pointed a finger at the sky above his head.

"Your Holy Lord wants you to be a 'Light Inspector' and judge all sinful humans wandering in this sinful land. But you have been judging yourself because you don't want to kill!"

"My dear friend, I want to ask you, if you are the Holy Lord in heaven"

"How will you give yourself strength?"

Jerome slowly raised his head, and he looked at Loki's eyes as blue as the sky in surprise. He wanted to say a lot, but couldn't say a word.

"No time for small talk, just listen"

"They're coming!"
